Events

Match Events

  • 0' Welcome to that hosts another battle between BSC Young Boys and Valencia CF.
  • 5' Valencia CF started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
  • 8' It’s a booking for Valencia CF player. Gabriel Paulista gets a Yellow card.
  • 13' BSC Young Boys is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 18' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Christian Fassnacht suffering a number of foals already.
  • 23' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 26' GOAL! Michy Batshuayi scores on 26.
  • 31' It looks surprising Valencia CF does not make any changes. Miralem Sulejmani has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 36' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 41' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering BSC Young Boys that had 236 games and scored 98 goals.
  • 42' BSC Young Boys receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 42.
  • 47' It looks like no one’s ball. BSC Young Boys is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 52' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Carlos Soler made 422 appearances and scored 42 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 55' What a strike from Guillaume Hoarau! The score is 1-1.
  • 60' Valencia CF seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 65' BSC Young Boys is showing some good football. However, BSC Young Boys are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 66' Another substitution for Valencia CF to replace Ferran Torres by Kevin Gameiro on 66 minute.
  • 70' Valencia CF manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Francis Coquelin is hanging Geoffrey Kondogbia on the field on 70 minute.
  • 74' The whistle greets Miralem Sulejmani as he departs to be replaced by Nicolas Ngamaleu.
  • 77' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Carlos Soler.
  • 79' Jean-Pierre Nsame has so much to prove this time. He replaces Guillaume Hoarau on 79 minute.
  • 84' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 85' Leonardo Bertone is replacing Christian Fassnacht for the BSC Young Boys side.
  • 90' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • Hope, you loved the show. Another epic battle is over with the score 1-1.
